Is there some variable i can set or some other way to configure
kermit so that it makes no sound (i.e., doesn't beep)?

Basically what i want to do is have completely silent operation,
so that kermit does not beep when i make a connection, and any
beeps the remote system sends my way are intercepted and thrown out
before they reach my hardware.  (Thus i don't want to hear any
beep when a file transfer is complete, when i make an error in
a remote program, when there's any trouble with the line, or
under any other circumstances whatsoever.)

I'd appreciate any info anyone can offer.

My version of kermit is:
   IBM-PC MS-DOS Kermit: 3.13 8 July 1993 patch level 17
